Abstract: The present study entitled “Export Performance of Pomegranate in India” was undertaken to know growth and instability in area, production, productivity and export of pomegranate, competitiveness of pomegranate export and the share of major pomegranate exporting countries of world trade. The nature of data used for the study is entirely based on secondary source of data from 1988-89 to 2018-19.The growth in area, production, productivity and export of pomegranate was measured by Compound Growth Rate, Coefficient of Variation and Coppock’s Instability Index were used for working out the instability in area, production, productivity and export of pomegranate. The export competitiveness of pomegranate was measured by Nominal Protection Coefficient. The share of major pomegranate exporting countries of world trade was measured by Hirschman’s index. There is increase in agriculture exports (3443.09 to 257204.27) but percentage share of agriculture export to total export was decreasing (18.69 to 13.20) due to increase in share of manufacturing sectors, service sectors etc. There is increase in quantity of India’s pomegranate export to world pomegranate export.
